DISPERPLAST® -1150

DISPERPLAST® -1150 by BYK is a solvent-free wetting and dispersing additive for PVC- and thermoplastics applications to improve the dispersion. It reduces the viscosity of pigmented and filled PVC plastisols. It enables greater solids content, improves the color strength of the pigments and shortens the dispersion time. It also prevents any separation of the plasticizer. The tendency of settling is reduced. It absorbs onto the pigment surface and generally enables better processing and dispersion of the pigments. It is recommended for producing fatty acid-based liquid color masterbatches with inorganic pigments which are used to color thermoplastics (PE, PP, PET). In doing so, it significantly reduces the viscosity, therefore, enabling greater pigmentation. The additive is also recommended in solid masterbatches for stabilizing inorganic pigments and effect pigments in PE, PP and PET. In these systems, DISPERPLAST® -1150 improves the torque build-up, the throughput, the viscosity (MVR) and the filter pressure value (FPV). It can impart anti-static properties to compounded materials. Its recommended level is 1-3% for zinc oxide, inorganic pigments & inorganic fillers, 5-7% for organic pigments and 1-2% for blowing agents. For thermoplastics, the recommended level for inorganic pigments, titanium dioxides and effect pigments is 0.5-3%. It is listed in EINECS, TSCA, DSL, PICCS, IECSC, ENCS, NZIoC and ECSI. It is in line with Directive 2011/65/EU (EU RoHS 2), as amended by the Delegated Directive (EU) 2015/863 (EU RoHS 3), EU Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE), EU Directive 94/62/EC (Packaging Waste) and CONEG Toxics in Packaging. It complies with REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006. DISPERPLAST® -1150 has a shelf life of 60 months.
